by_o these_o word_n paul_n signify_v that_o no_o law_n of_o itself_o be_v able_a to_o quicken_v or_o geve_v life_n kill_v but_o only_o kill_v therefore_o such_o work_n as_o be_v do_v not_o only_o according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o tradition_n of_o the_o pope_n but_o also_o according_a to_o the_o very_a law_n of_o god_n do_v not_o justify_v a_o man_n before_o god_n but_o make_v he_o a_o

and_o he_o except_v no_o law_n wherefore_o this_o gloze_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v not_o worth_a a_o rush_n for_o the_o law_n of_o the_o ceremony_n be_v as_o well_o command_v of_o god_n and_o as_o

in_o good_a order_n he_o teach_v that_o the_o law_n if_o you_o consider_v his_o true_a and_o perfect_a use_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o as_o a_o certain_a schoolmaster_n to_o lead_v we_o unto_o
